See ftp://stage.caldera.com/pub/security/openserver/CSSA-2001-SCO.33/
for a corrected inetd binary.

"5.0" isn't a precise OpenServer version number, versions have been
5.0.0, 5.0.2, 5.0.4, 5.0.5, 5.0.6. Run `uname -X` to get the precise
version.

The above fix is labeled for 5.0.5 only (fixed in 5.0.6), but I believe
the binary will work on 5.0.0 and later if you install a shared library
update, ftp://stage.caldera.com/pub/security/openserver/CSSA-2001-SCO.10/.
